History
Lexington was named in honor of Lexington, Massachusetts, the site of many major Revolutionary War events, including the first shot of the war. North Carolina’s Lexington was settled in 1775 by Europeans, and the settlement incorporated in 1828. It eventually grew to become a successful textile and furniture-manufacturing town. Today, the town is no longer focused on manufacturing, but the name Lexington is used for many fine furniture lines.
The oldest-surviving house in Lexington is The Homestead, which was constructed by physician Dr. William Rainey Holt in 1834. The house is included on the National Register of Historic Places, amongst other Lexington landmarks.
